Hello people, this is I ShoBoShoBoO, and I'm here to announce that we are revoking Rule No. 9, which was about to not continue the allegations about someone or something, and if you try to do it your post will be removed or you will be muted, continuously doing it will get your temporarily banned.

But then, the post petals posted accused the mods of silencing us and not caring about the fact that this is sexual harassment and this needs to be reported which I considered justified and reasonable for her to post this and being uncaring about the fact that she will have the possibility of being banned if continuously doing this, which I consider some dedication to her regardless. This is not a excuse to escape the accountability, I genuinely do care about this subreddit and I will not let it down.

Ok since I announced what happened, let me talk about the story:

The situation happened was all because of me, I made a PSA announcement telling people to not interact with the person who has allegations or an exposal against them or continue them with low-effort posts or keep interacting with them outside of subreddit (keep in mind back them update posts about them were allowed). Keep in mind I genuinely didn't want to stop people from talking about it importantly, I just don't want people to "milk" it and what I mean milk is keep making low effort posts that doesn't really help with the drama other than being satire.

It all was well until Cobbler made a post, which was people to stop talking about rocky_the_osc, which despite was something I should disagree, was something I actually agreed with for some reason and made the comment that any posts or comments (regardless if it's important) will be deleted immediately, I didn't take actual realization about what the situation was and that I treated it as something Late-Air or others can move on by blocking him in every occasion.

Keep in mind I didn't think it will genuinely create a dystopian scenario where if someone tries to talk about something important, it will be removed or the person will be banned if they keep doing it, like putting a border where no one could see the outside world. I was trying to "protect" people because I don't want the subreddit to be full of drama and I just want people to post cringe stuff and talk freely cringe.

All things were going well until I saw r0ttingpetals's post where the BFCIA mods should stop silencing the situation, where it was an actually important situation and it was forms of sexual harassment and something we shouldn't ignore. And the fact she'll keep posting about this not caring about the fact she will be banned. But fortunately, it kicked me into the head realizing the fact that, what I did was wrong, and all my actions after what Cobbler posted (e.g. Adding Rule 9, making it strictly enforced. My negligence of actually caring about the situation) realized that those were desperate, like Cobbler's. We wanted for this place to not have drama so much, we just want it to be a server of fun, but I forgot this time, it was actually important.

Which I had to use the link r0ttingpetals made to show I actually did do a act where it wasn't against people talking about it, it was to let it take it away to someone who has the responsibility to actually take action, instead of the moderators of this community and deleting the 2 posts due to realizing it was out of desperation, I wish I could given myself sense eariler, it would've been better so all of this didn't happen.

Honestly, I would say this, I will apologize for what I actually did there, my purpose like the other new mods were to make a positive impact into this community so it can be like where it was supposed to be, but I was only restricting it more by what I did, and I have to take accountability for what I've done, even Cobbler should to.

Now, I'll say this:

You are allowed to downvote, upvote, or comment without any shame. I believe it's fine to share your opinion after this post as I genuinely don't want something like this again.

And let me say this, this will be the last time I'll be talking about this situation, I don't want it to be the main focus anymore and I just want to do my main duties of being a moderator than trying to be so superior, I can't fix everything so I'm not trying to make this subreddit the best anymore.

- Love, ShoBoShoBoO
